5 Tips How To Grow Oregano! Oregano herb most commonly known and used on pizzas. It can be grown both inside and outside your home so you can grow and enjoy fresh oregano no matter where you live.

This amazing herb is a great source of fiber, vitamins A, B6, C, E and K. Oregano also contains folate, magnesium, iron, calcium and potassium in oregano. Besides excellent health benefits it will also add tasty flavour to your soups, salads, sauces or many other dishes.

5 Tips To Grow Oregano:

1. Location

First thing before you start planting would be to choose the best spot to plant your oregano. It is a herb that prefers full sun. If you live in a colder part of the world it might be better to plant your herb inside. You can easily transfer the pot with the oregano outside after it gets warmer.

2. Planting

Plant oregano out after all danger of frost has passed. Put your oregano seeds around 30 centimeters apart, 60 centimeters deep or bury clippings a little bit more then one centimeter deep. Be patient while awaiting for yourseedlings to emerge from the ground if you decide to plant oregano seeds.

3.Watering

Water your oregano regularly but be careful not to over do it. You should wait for the soil to go completely dry before next watering. You can check the soil around the plant with your finger if it feels dry. When you are watering it, you should do it moderately.

4.Trimming

In order for your oregano to grow thicker you should trim it. Use a pair of scissors to cut the leaves and ends of your plant. You will notice the herb will branch at that point where it will be trimmed. It will also help to prevent excessive stem growth.

5.Harvesting

The best time to harvest oregano is in early summer, just before the plant starts blooming. At that time the herb reaches its peak potency but the plants can be harvested anytime once they have reached around 13 centimeters. Try always to pick up oregano leaves in the morning.

Oregano is a really good companion plant for many different plants. It grows especially well with tomatoes, broccoli, basil and peppers. The herb will protect some other plants against certain pests. When it is allowed to freely spread among the peppers it can provide ground cover and humidity. The impressive health benefits of oregano include its ability to protect the immune system, prevent the onset of chronic diseases, improve digestion , strengthen the bones, improve hearth, boost energy levels, and even protect against diabetes.Two of the most important components of oregano are rosmarinic acid and thymol, both of which are powerful antioxidant compounds that have been closely linked to reducing oxidative stress body. Free radicals are the destructive by-products of cellular metabolism that can cause cancer and other chronic diseases. Thus, adding oregano to your diet by sprinkling it on your meals can improve your immune health and keep your body safe from some of the most dangerous and silent killers.
